Teks -- Judges 10:6 (NET)

The Lord’s Patience Runs Short

10:6 The Israelites again did evil in the Lord’s sight. They worshiped the Baals and the Ashtars, as well as the gods of Syria, Sidon, Moab, the Ammonites, and the Philistines. They abandoned the Lord and did not worship him.

Tafsiran/Catatan -- Catatan Kata/Frasa (per frasa)

Wesley: Jdg 10:6 - Forsook the Lord

They grew worse and worse, and so ripened themselves for ruin. Before they worshipped God and idols together, now they forsake God, and wholly cleave to idols.

JFB: Jdg 10:6 - the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the Lord

This apostasy seems to have exceeded every former one in the grossness and universality of the idolatry practised.

Clarke: Jdg 10:6 - And served Baalim

And served Baalim - They became universal idolaters, adopting every god of the surrounding nations. Baalim and Ashtaroth may signify gods and goddesses in general. These are enumerated

1.    The gods of Syria; Bel and Saturn, or Jupiter and Astarte

2.    Gods of Zidon; Ashtaroth, Astarte or Venus

3.    The gods of Moab; Chemosh

4.    Gods of the children of Ammon; Milcom

5.    Gods of the Philistines; Dagon

See 1Ki 11:33 (note), and 1Sa 5:2 (note). These are called gods because their images and places of worship were multiplied throughout the land.

Poole: Jdg 10:6

He shows how they grew worse and worse, and so ripened themselves for the ruin which afterward came upon them. Before they worshipped God and idols together; now they utterly forsake God, and wholly cleave to idols.

Haydock: Jdg 10:6 - Gods

Gods. The sun and moon were principally adored among these nations, under different names.

Gill: Jdg 10:6 - And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the Lord // and served Baalim, and Ashtaroth // also the gods of Syria // and the gods of Zidon // and the gods of Moab // and the gods of the children of Ammon // and the gods of the Philistines // and forsook the Lord, and served not him

And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the Lord,.... After the death of the above judges they fell into idolatry again, as the following instances show:

and served Baalim, and Ashtaroth; as they had before; see Gill on Jdg 2:11, Jdg 2:13 and, besides these:

also the gods of Syria; their gods and goddesses, Belus and Saturn, Astarte and the Dea Syria, Lucian writes of:

and the gods of Zidon; the goddess of the Zidonians was Ashtaroth, 1Ki 11:5 and it seems they had other deities:

and the gods of Moab; the chief of which were Baalpeor and Chemosh, Num 25:3.

and the gods of the children of Ammon, as Milcom or Molech, 1Ki 11:5.

and the gods of the Philistines; as Dagon the god of Ashdod, Beelzebub the god of Ekron, Marnas the god of Gaza, and Derceto the goddess of Ashkalon:

and forsook the Lord, and served not him; not even in conjunction with the above deities, as Jarchi and others observe; at other times, when they worshipped other gods, they pretended to worship the Lord also, they served the creature besides the Creator; but now they were so dreadfully sunk into idolatry, that they had wholly forsaken the Lord and his worship at the tabernacle, and made no pretensions to it, but entirely neglected it.
